Epiphysis

Veeramani made her way through the earlier rounds Friday night, spelling "epiphysis" and "juvia" with ease. ❋ Unknown (2010)

Our expert team treats hip disorders and deformities such as hip dysplasia and dislocation, slipped capital femoral epiphysis, Legg-Calve-Perthes disease, infection and chondrolysis. ❋ Unknown (2010)

It was the newest rod available, and it threaded into the epiphysis, whatever that was, which kept it from migrating, like the older rods used to. ❋ JODI PICOULT (2009)

He argued that the “worm-like appendage” [epiphysis or apophysis] of the cerebellum (nowadays known as the vermis superior cerebelli) is much better qualified to play this role (Kühn 1822, pp. 674-683; May 1968, vol. 1, pp. 418-423). ❋ Lokhorst, Gert-Jan (2008)

A radial epiphysis the growth ends of the other forearm bone. ❋ Ann Rule (2008)

Sometimes the epiphysis is displaced, and sometimes there is displacement (diastasis) of the one bone from the other. ❋ Unknown (2007)

The head of the humerus is articulated with its (glenoid?) cavity, by means of a small ligament, and it consists of a rounded epiphysis composed of spongy cartilage, the humerus itself is bent outward and forward, and it is articulated with its (glenoid?) cavity by its side, and not in a straight line. ❋ Unknown (2007)

When the foot is dislocated, either alone, or with the epiphysis, the displacement is more apt to be inward. ❋ Unknown (2007)

And the cases in which the articular cavity has been broke off, and in which the ligament has been torn, and in which the epiphysis has broken in which, and how, when the limb consists of two bones, one or both are broken: in consequence of these the dangers, chances in which bad, and when the injuries will result in death, and when in recovery. ❋ Unknown (2007)

The whole hand is dislocated either inward or outward, or to this side or that, but more especially inward; and sometimes the epiphysis is displaced, and sometimes the other of these bones is separated. ❋ Unknown (2007)

When the foot is dislocated, either alone or along with its epiphysis, the displacement is, for the most part, to the inside. ❋ Unknown (2007)

These are connected together at the foot, and form a common epiphysis, but they are not united together along the line of the leg; and at the thigh they are united together and form an epiphysis, and this epiphysis has a diaphysis; but the other bone in a line with the little toe is a little longer. ❋ Unknown (2007)

Sometimes the bones connected with the foot are displaced, sometimes both bones with their epiphysis; sometimes the whole epiphysis is slightly moved, and sometimes the other bone. ❋ Unknown (2007)

The vertebrae on the inside are regularly placed upon one another, but behind they are connected by a cartilaginous ligament; they are articulated in the form of synarthrosis at the back part of the spinal marrow; behind they have a sharp process having a cartilaginous epiphysis, whence proceeds the roots of nerves running downward, as also muscles extending from the neck to the loins, and filling the space between the ribs and the spine. ❋ Unknown (2007)

It sometimes happens that the head of the humerus is fractured at its epiphysis; and this, although it may appear to be ❋ Unknown (2007)

But the visual accompanying this text is seems to show the division between the shaft (diaphysis) and end (epiphysis) of the bone. ❋ Unknown (2005)

Couldn't identify sex, but the sealed epiphysis told me it was an adult. ❋ Grouse (2001)

To fill in the time between surgery and this course, I did some studies on capillary growth in the epiphysis of the long bones in the Institute of Anatomy at the University of Basel, under the direction of R. Schenk and U. Riede. ❋ Unknown (1997)

The epiphysis at the upper end had been removed, and some of the spongy inner material had been taken out, enlarging the natural canal. ❋ Auel, Jean M. (1985)
